Multiple installers open during package install

[thefiestysoldier]

When I install a .deb package manually using package installer (navigating to it in the file browser then doubleclicking on it) it stops me from installing and asks me to close other package managers(no others are open)

Look at the output of this command from a terminal to see if synaptic, apt, apt-get, or adept running.


ps -A

Heres the output during normal operation:

After examining the output the only suspicious process I saw was number 5144(but I may be wrong)
